1. Base model rear wheel drive, motor in rear handles almost like a 911, only more stable with the batteries close to the ground.
2. Can't stop looking at it and thinking about that low low drag coefficient like a bird or a marine animal.
3. Elegance in a four-door beyond compare.

1. The driving experience. My first Porsche, and wow!
2. The practicality. I can go to dinner with another couple or put my kids in the back seat. I can go to Costco. And see #1. All in one car.
3. All the other things everyone else has already said.

1. Driving.
2. Just sitting in the driver’s seat - something about it is just completely unlike any other car I’ve ever experienced, that kind of cockpit feel. (Even our i4 M50 has nowhere near the seating position, despite being pretty close for the driving experience otherwise.)
3. Despite the above, the CT is still a practical vehicle, whether for family trips, hauling buckets of gravel, etc.

Alas for the charging speed cited by others, this is just a frustrating taunt in Northern New England. The only fast reliable chargers are Tesla, with limited access, and speeds in the 130s kW given their voltage - by contrast, our i4 always hits in the low 200s.
(Near me is a 640kW charger, but since it was paid for with federal taxpayer dollars, it barely gets into the low 100s.)

It’s probably the best-looking car, and I enjoy spending time cleaning/detailing it like no other.

As @f1eng mentioned, each of the driving modes is tuned just right, good balance of comfort and responsiveness, but Sports Plus is my favorite!

Most importantly- it’s brought back the joy of driving in my all-electric household.
